If you prefer , you can take a scenic gravel surfaced drive along the same route .Why not drive down to the river and walk the river section of the trail? – directions from Sherwood’s.

Underwhelming

Left on 06/03/2013 for a stay in April 2013 | A FlipKey verified reviewer

Food was excellent but the room , although neat and clean, looked really old and tired and in need of a refurbishment. I am also not in favour of a bathroom without a door as it is not only cold in winter, but it was also inappropriate whilst sharing the room with my son. Read more
